Google+ and Social Search: Things the Company Has Done Right

15 March 2012

New York : Google is being criticized for its focus on social networking, but never forget that, the company has done a lot things right with its social push.

Google has been hit extremely hard in an article written by former employee that the Google has lost its core vision and has become a company that focuses solely on advertising and forces itself into “a single corporate-mandated focus”. It was a shocking criticism of the search giant, and it indicated that things might not be so great.

One of his chief complaints was Google’s new social network, Google+. He argues that it was the breaking point that pulled Google in a new direction towards the aforementioned “mandate” and blamed for focusing on company’s efforts on social networking and advertising and not the entrepreneurial spirit that made the search giant so special.
